  1. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    Guest1144461 replied to MasterNursinator's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    What are you talking about, I am an ACNP and have never met an ACNP who works primarily in the outpatient setting. That is why it is called ACUTE care. Complex chronically ill patients can be acutely...

  2. BSN-NP? DNP? No RN experience needed?

    Guest1144461 replied to Michelle marie.'s topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    If you have 500k in debt I would pick a more lucrative career than being a NP....like being a RN instead (as you are doing). Herzing and schools that accept literally anyone are trash. You...

  3. Thomas Jefferson University CRNA 2023

    Guest1144461 replied to ola.ICURN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Yeah he did! Thanks! He thought it really went well. I believe him because he’s a good interviewer, dater etc

  4. NPs and Being On-Call

    Guest1144461 replied to ZephieLin's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Highly variable. I don’t have MD back up. Being a NP isn’t a 9-5 job or clock in/out like a RN. If you are already having reservations about a on call situation which might not even happen,...

  5. Thomas Jefferson University CRNA 2023

    Guest1144461 replied to ola.ICURN's topic in Student Registered Nurse Anesthetist

    Honestly he asked them and they were pretty vague, I think his science GPA from years prior was hurting him even though he went back for extra classes and got a near 4.0. He’s prior military with...

    My friend from my old job told me they got their “accepted” email the day after their

  8. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    Guest1144461 replied to MasterNursinator's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    That’s the usual. Very rare to go straight into the ICU. You need to do your time

  9. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Pretty broad blush claim you got there. Especially coming from someone who seems to have zero experience in the arena. ACNP only, new and “experienced”. But experience means nothing when...

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I agree. I have worked with IM and FM residents. The differences during inpatient rotations are

  11. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    Guest1144461 replied to MasterNursinator's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I answered this… 75-80% of the work needs to be inpatient, otherwise why do acute

  12. DNP student in need of a preceptor

    Guest1144461 replied to TexasBSN.RN's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Sorry your school failed you.This sadly tends to be the case with distant programs who have no accountability. Also don’t use your real name. There are a few pay to play NP preceptor sites out...

  13. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I also work on a committee to hire NPs/APPs. We can’t fill positions because most of the resumes we get are bloated BS or woefully inadequate. Most of the NPs can’t even answer our basic clinical...

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Yup, I’m 100% independent and am expected to perform to the level of a MD. We show up in the morning and split the patients without even looking at why they were

  15. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Where did I say that. No, but I did a fellowship (pulling 80-90 hour weeks making peanuts) and spent years learning on my own and in practice to become a competent provider. NP school in general does...

  16. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Serious question. Are you an NP? Do you currently work as one? Comparing a new grad nurse to an NP is a completely out of of touch case of apples and oranges. You can’t “boot camp” a NP...

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Again…I never said anything against online school completely. But it’s a gateway crutch to mediocrity. It’s easy to half a** online school with asynchronous lectures, dated lectures, lack of...

  18. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Meds schools and residencies are STANDARDIZED through GME/LCME with thousands of hours of requirements, required rotations, required curriculum and stringent residency standards. I am not surprised...

  19. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Using substandard licensing board and credentialing requirements as low-tier meat shields is not an argument. This is a result of good lobbying not competence. Schools need and can do better....

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Schools also can set higher standards for hours and enforce more campus visits, preceptor arrangements, preceptor oversight, sim labs etc but they don't.

  21. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    As a general point, I don't really give my opinion unless I have been there and done that. That is a pretty good policy. Same thing with military experience which I also have. As for the crusade, yeah...

  22. For-Profit, Nonselective NP Schools are Hurting Our Reputation and Credibility

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    This is not correct. If you think NPs are all working with supervising physicians and getting softball cases all day you are wrong. There is no credentialing legalese directing or supporting...

  23. Acute Care NP without ICU experience?

    Guest1144461 replied to MasterNursinator's topic in Student Nurse Practitioner

    I think majority needs to be inpatient. Like 75-80% No it’s not acute

    Guest1144461 replied to DNPgrad2022's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I have literally posted ways to improve 100 times and I am tired of doing it over and over. Read my post
